E.U. will pause retaliatory tariffs against U.S. as trade talks continue
In a statement, the European Commission spokesperson for trade said the planned countermeasures against the U.S., which were set to take effect Thursday, would now be suspended for six months.
The announcement helped propel stocks higher Monday, with major indexes all gaining about 1%.
On July 27, Trump announced an agreement with the E.U. — America's largest trading partner — that included a baseline tariff of 15%, down from a threatened 30%, and a pledge by the bloc to buy $750 billion of U.S. energy products and invest an additional $600 billion in unspecified U.S. projects.
In return, Trump said, the E.U. promised to remove tariffs on U.S. industrial goods.
The commission trade spokesperson said Monday it was still working on finalizing a joint statement with the Trump administration.
There has been no letup in Trump's aggressive trade posture. The president also announced Monday he would ratchet up trade duties on India over allegations it was illicitly reselling Russian oil, something he said was helping fuel Russia's war effort in Ukraine.
The other new measures Trump announced last week, including a 15% tariff rate on some four dozen countries with which the U.S. currently has a trade deficit, are set to take effect Thursday.

Stock market today: Dow jumps 500 points, S&P5 500, Nasdaq have best day since May as Wall Street bounces back
US stocks rebounded sharply Monday, recovering from last week's sell-off sparked by disappointing labor data and continuing trade uncertainty. The benchmark S&P 500 (^GSPC) climbed 1.5%, while the blue-chip Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI) rose 1.3% or more than 500 points. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC) led the gains, rising about 1.9%. Shares of Nvidia (NVDA) jumped 3%, while Meta (META) and Microsoft (MSFT) also rose to close at all-time highs. The moves follow a sharp pullback on Wall Street on Friday. All three major indexes posted their worst weekly declines in months, ending a run of positive market moves. The declines were exacerbated Friday after July's jobs report came in weaker than expected, and previous months' tallies were revised sharply lower, flipping the narrative on the labor market's strength. It led President Trump to lash out at the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), which publishes the monthly jobs report, and fire its commissioner. Trump suggested he would nominate a new head for the agency in the coming days. Trump's battle with the Fed and Chair Jerome Powell has also remained in focus. Traders tempered expectations around interest rate policy following the bank's decision last week to leave rates unchanged for a fifth consecutive meeting. But after the weak jobs data, almost 90% of bets are on a cut in September. At the same time, investors are examining the fallout from Trump's implementation of tariffs. The updated tariffs set to come into full effect this week range from 10% to 41% on a wide range of trading partners and raise concerns about rising costs amid broader inflationary pressures. On Monday, Trump said he would be "substantially raising" tariffs on India as he presses to stop purchasing Russian oil, effectively accusing the nation of subsidizing Russia's war in Ukraine. Meanwhile, Tesla (TSLA) stock edged higher after reports emerged that the company had granted CEO Elon Musk 96 million shares worth about $29 billion.

Exclusive-Fed's Daly says time is nearing for rate cuts, may need more than two
By Ann Saphir (Reuters) -San Francisco Federal Reserve Bank President Mary Daly on Monday said that given mounting evidence that the U.S. job market is softening and no signs of persistent tariff-driven inflation, the time is nearing for interest rate cuts. "I was willing to wait another cycle, but I can't wait forever," Daly said of the Fed's decision last week to leave short-term borrowing costs in their 4.25%-4.50% range rather than cut them, as a couple of her colleagues wanted and as President Donald Trump has demanded. While that doesn't mean a September rate cut is a lock, she said, "I would lean to thinking that every meeting going forward is a live meeting to think about these policy adjustments." The two quarter-point interest-rate cuts that Fed policymakers back in June penciled in for this year still "look to be an appropriate amount of recalibration, and less important is, does it happen in September and December than does it happen at all kinds of permutations to get those two cuts." Daly said there is still plenty of data including a couple of labor market and inflation reports due out before the Fed's policy-setting meeting, in September, and she's keeping an open mind. "We of course could do fewer than two (rate cuts) if inflation picks up and spills over or if the labor market springs back," Daly said. But "I think the more likely thing is that we might have to do more than also should be prepared in my judgment to do more if the labor market looks to be entering that period of weakness and we still haven't seen spillovers to inflation." A Labor Department report Friday showed U.S. employers added just 73,000 jobs last month, and massive revisions to previously reported data showed only 33,000 jobs were added in the two prior months. Those figures, to Daly's mind, don't mean the job market is precariously weak - in times of economic flux, she said, raw employment numbers are often less informative than ratios like the unemployment rate, which ticked up just a tenth of a percentage point in July to 4.2%. Still, she said, looking at a broad dashboard of labor-market measures, there is "evidence after piece of evidence" that the labor market is softening quite a bit compared to last year. "I would see further softening as an unwelcome result," she said. "I'm comfortable with the decision we made in July, but I am increasingly less comfortable with making that decision again and again." At the same time, she said, there's no evidence that tariff-driven price increases are seeping more broadly into inflation, and if the Fed waits long enough to be certain it won't -- a process that could take six months or a year, she said - the Fed will "for sure" be too late to move. The Fed is approaching a "tradeoff space where you are trying to make a judgment about where does policy need to be to continue to put downward pressure on inflation, and where does it need to be to continue to make sure that sustainable employment can be achieved," she said. "That's why I didn't think that July was a necessary change, but I do think, increasingly, policy is not aligned."

Stock market today: Dow jumps 580 points, S&P 500, Nasdaq have best day since May as Wall Street bounces back
US stocks rebounded sharply Monday, recovering from last week's sell-off sparked by disappointing labor data and continuing trade uncertainty. The benchmark S&P 500 (^GSPC) climbed 1.5%, while the blue-chip Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI) rose 1.3%, or more than 500 points. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC) led the gains, rising about 1.9%. Shares of Nvidia (NVDA) jumped 3%, while Meta (META) and Microsoft (MSFT) also rose to close at all-time highs. The moves followed a sharp pullback on Wall Street on Friday. All three major indexes posted their worst weekly declines in months, ending a run of positive market moves. The declines were exacerbated Friday after July's jobs report came in weaker than expected, and previous months' tallies were revised sharply lower, flipping the narrative on the labor market's strength. It led President Trump to lash out at the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), which publishes the monthly jobs report, and fire its commissioner. Trump suggested he would nominate a new head for the agency in the coming days. Trump's battle with the Fed and Chair Jerome Powell has also remained in focus. Traders tempered expectations around interest rate policy following the bank's decision last week to leave rates unchanged for a fifth consecutive meeting. But after the weak jobs data, almost 90% of bets are on a cut in September. At the same time, investors are examining the fallout from Trump's implementation of tariffs. The updated tariffs set to come into full effect this week range from 10% to 41% on a wide range of trading partners and raise concerns about rising costs amid broader inflationary pressures. On Monday, Trump said he would be "substantially raising" tariffs on India as he presses to stop purchasing Russian oil, effectively accusing the nation of subsidizing Russia's war in Ukraine. Meanwhile, Tesla (TSLA) stock edged higher after reports emerged that the company had granted CEO Elon Musk 96 million shares worth about $29 billion.

Tariffs not expected to cause recession or end bull market, says UBS As President Trump's tariff policy pans out, UBS strategists signal it won't cause a recession or spell the end of a bull market.

Goldman with a sobering view on the consumer Goldman Sachs out this morning with a subdued outlook on the US consumer following Friday's lackluster jobs report. Good read on the consumer from the WSJ today, mirrors what Procter & Gamble's (PG) CEO told me on earnings day. Goldman's chief economist Jan Hatzius: "We expect the weakness in consumer spending to continue in the second half of the year and forecast 0.8% real spending growth in 2025H2. Our view is underpinned by the expectation of a sharp slowdown in real income growth from its elevated pace in 2025H1. Income growth will be hit in Q3 by the phasing out of the one-off 2025H1 government transfer payments and in Q4 by the Medicaid and SNAP benefit cuts included in the new fiscal bill, which will take effect in 2025Q4 and affect lower-income households in particular. We also see higher tariff-driven inflation to impose a drag on real income growth in the second half of the year. Finally, we expect weak job growth due to lower immigration, cuts in government and healthcare hiring, and a tariff-related decline in activity. We expect declines in both business and residential investment in the second half of the year."
